Dance and Electronic
A.k.a. Grier Carson
Sampling has facilitated a true paradigm shift in the modern musical experience. Like photography did for the visual arts, the technological phenomenon of recordable sound and its application as a principle unit for composition fundamentally alters our experience with music in that it makes concrete what was once ephemeral and temporal. A performance art made plastic, music may now explore the dynamic extremes and subjective anxiety consistent with a cacophonous landscape. Musicians can now bypass the limitations of note-based/rhythm-based composition, rooted in the logistical constraints of performance and interpretation, and create works expressly designed for repeated listening, like sculpture which benefits from prolonged and repeated examination. This is the perspective that informs the production of all GEC music.
